Alright, Spencer and I are having a hard time figuring out what to name our soon to be here child! So I thought I'd post the top 3 that we have been agreeable on. Please give me some feedback, I'm fine with someone not likeing the name and telling me why, that helps in the process, but dont worry, if we do name our child the name you didnt care for.............I won't be the least bit concerned.

No more MULLET!

Yes, my daughter has had a slight mullet for the past 4 or 5 months, I've been working on letting her sides catch up with the rest of her hair and in the meantime, neglected the back of her hair that continued to grow. So I took some scissors to her hair after church last Sunday and "Wallah!" No more little miss mullet! She was a little shy at first as the two of us "oooh'd and ahhhh'd" over her. But shes looking so grown up to us now!

Just a little behind.......

I am well aware that I am not the best at updating my blog. It's taken me forever to get pictures off of my camera and on to the computer. Can you believe I had over 450 pictures to download! So here is my attempt to update you through pictures! Yeah!

This is Sophi in May, she is obsessed with making sure every doll she puts on a chair is lined up alongside her! She gets this from me. I have a picture just like it of me when I was about her age. Must be some type of obsessive compulsive disorder.
This is Sophi in May at the Henry Doorly Zoo. They have a new butterfly exhibit and it was a huge hit with her. We went with my friend Shani and her little boy Reilly. It was a fun day! She kissed just about every little fake animal you could sit on at the flower gardens.

Reilly wasnt a fan of the rhino!

A few days after the zoo, I noticed we had a new baby bird that had landed on our deck, he was just learning to fly so he was quite unsteady. Sophi was so excited and started offering the bird her morning cereal!

Now on to a home improvement project.......... I have been so excited to get things ready for my new little baby boy. I finished painting his room the end of May right before we left for out little vacation. It turned out really cute! Its kind of hard to not feel overwhelmed with the stripes in this picture because I could only get so far back with the camera, but trust me when your in the room, it doesnt feel that way. Yeah for little boys!

For those of you who dont already know, Sophia has a hard time giving someone a "thumbs up". She understands the concept that a finger is suppose to be pointing up from your hand, but she turns it into a set of "guns" pointed at the ceiling.

Its to DIE for!

To add to her obsessive compulsive disorders, when she "puts her babies to bed" they ALWAYS go face down, just like she sleeps. She ran out of her room one day and said "Daddy come see", Spencer found her entire bed covered with every last doll and stuffed animal facing down on her bed! Another thing to DIE for!

That wraps up our month of May! I'll post June too, it was a very busy month!

I'm BACK!

Yes! I'm posting again! I know it takes me a while. First things first! My wonderful hubby got a job promotion about 2 weeks ago! Yeah! He will be opening a new Best Buy on L Street in Millard as the Customer Experience Manager (CES). He has been busy these last couple weeks interviewing people for his department. The only downer to this little promotion is that he has to train in Minnesota the week we had tickets to go to California for vacation. So, I"m in the process of figuring out what to do with my ticket! Who wants to pass up an opportunity to lay on the beach in San Clemente for a week! Although the complications, I'm so proud of his enthusiasum for work and "moving on up". He really does love the company and being friendly with people! Good Job Spencer!

As for whats new, well, I think I've gotten Spencer set on some dates to paint the outside of the house, this Saturday and Monday on Memorial Day! I'm really excited! I'm picked up some paint myself, I'm planning on repainting Sophi's room, and the baby's room. I'm always trying to spice things up a bit. Hey, when you probably will be spending about 3 months straight in a nursery with a newborn, you might as well enjoy the 4 walls your staring at! ;)

I'm super excited for SUMMER! I've already been garage saleing for baby boy stuff, and I'm ready to hit the pool and catch some sun! I picked up Sophia some dress up clothes at a garage sale, she things its kinda fun to dress up with moms help. I'm thinking it might be short lived until she gets a little bigger. The things she really enjoys are the crowns and wands, probably because its the easiest for her to put on herself. She's also been ready to jump into Grandma and Papas pool for the past week. Its been too cold but this week I think will be a great week for swimming! She's obsessed with waving the water hose all over the backyard!

Don't start a RIOT!

I know, I'm deeply sorry, a few of you have been pretty firm about letting me know I need to update my blog. Here's the deal. I'm on the computer for about 3 hours a day making calls for my little jobby and by the time I finish I am absolutely ready to be OFF the computer for the day. It almost makes me sick to stare at a computer screen for so long. I must thank you though for your persistance, it is much appreciated to see how much you love me! :)
SOOOOO, I go in for the ultrsound for baby #2 on May 2, It is quite a late appointment, I'll be 21 weeks then. I believe the doctor was gunna be out of town and thats why the date got scheduled so late. I know I'm going nuts just waiting to find out! Spencer and I are at a loss for having any intuition on what the sex is, so we're in just as much suspense as you all may be. I like the name Charlie for a boy, Spencers thinks its a little feminine only because of that movie Charly.........I dont know what to say to that. We are pretty agreeable on the name Baylor though. As for girl names, I like Emmie. Spencer has not really stated either way if hes for it or not.
UPDATE FOR SOPHIA..........
We have taken away the crib and have conquered the toddler bed! I have to admit, I tried the Super Nanny going to bed thingy and it worked like a charm. The first night I put her in her bed 11 times in like 13 min. The second night I put her to bed only 4 times, and the third night Spencer only had to put her back in bed once. The fourth night, it was quick and simple, we read a book, said our prayers, rocked a little and she was out for the entire night. I'm super excited!
This weeks been fun! Brett and Courtney got back from school and brought Bretts fiance Jessica back with them to stay for a week. We've done a little of everything and have a couple more days with Jessica in town to do some more stuff. After that we're going to steal Brett to help up paint the outside of the house for a few days! I'm excited for that, I don't care for the peachy skin color of our house now. By the way, have I mentioned that the weather has been incredible for the past week! I'm super excited for summer to finally be here and to have the windows open around the house. I just love it!

The Phantom of the Opera

TOTALLY OBSESSED! I've been singing Phantom songs since Valentines Day! Spencer and I went with Spencers parents on Valentines to the Orpheum and saw this incredible show. I knew after seeing it, that it was a must for my moms birtday the 20th of this month. So I grabbed some more tickets and took her last night! I cried more this time than the first time I saw it! Now mom and I are going to make ourselves theater junkies! We're making plans to see Annie and South Pacific in a few months! Mom says, "You do the driving, I'll pay!" Hello! Could anyone pass that up?!

Still SICK and miss all the family!

Well, well, well, still waiting for the nausea to LEAVE! Hoping only a few more weeks! Please! I though I'd make a quick post to let you know I'm still alive, I go to the doctor this Friday to have my first baby check up! I'm excited! Just to catch up on a few things. Spencers grandfather "papa" passed away a couple weeks ago. We will miss him so much, but know that he's with his family and having a wonderful time where he is now. It was fun though to see all the family when they came into town. The kids got to play together and I have a wonderful video posted thanks to Megan! Its so funny!
Right now, Spencer and I are just waiting for summer to get here! We've had enough of this snow! Plus we can't wait to travel to San Clemente this summer and also travel some more for Spencers little brother Bretts wedding in June!
